After almost two years of calmly apologizing for American exceptionalism, quietly extending rights to those who have killed thousands of American citizens (and those who want to do the same) and steadily pressing a socialist agenda that defies both American majority opinion and American precedent; President Barack Obama is losing his cool.

Foreign attackers didn't phase him and dissent over domestic issues didn't seem to register with him Not even the traditional opponent of a sitting president, the White House Press Corps, has been able to get under his skin. Granted he won't give them the opportunity, reducing their access to shouting out questions he refuses to answer as he strolls by like the emperor in his new clothes. But now, his obvious frustration in the face of his own incompetence has revealed that "No Drama Obama" is prone to immature outbursts when faced with difficult situations.

We, the people, are in grave danger - because We, the people, have placed an immature, inexperienced, man-child at the helm the State-Ship.
So who to blame? We the people, and the Corporate Media that continues to mislead We, the people!
I hold Corporate Media as responsible as the uninformed masses that have allowed a Commie Usurper to occupy The Oval Office, and act as Commander-In-Chief!

Joe Lieberman, fully embracing his role as a Republican attack dog, took the lead in a GOP conference call this morning to attack Barack Obamas Middle East policy. On the call, organized by far-right Rep. Eric Cantor (R-Va.), Lieberman argued, weakly, that Obama holds the U.S. responsible for Irans strength in the region.

Senator Obama argued today that American foreign policy in recent years has essentially sort of strengthened Iran, Lieberman said, adding, If Israel is in danger today, its not because of American foreign policy, which has been strongly supportive of Israel in every way. Its not because of what weve done in Iraq, its because Iran is a fanatical terrorist expansionist state.

Obama, apparently, didnt care for Liebermans comments, so much so that the Democratic presidential nominee confronted Lieberman directly on the Senate floor this afternoon. Subscription-only Roll Call reported:

[D]uring a Senate vote Wednesday, Obama dragged Lieberman by the hand to a far corner of the Senate chamber and engaged in what appeared to reporters in the gallery as an intense, three-minute conversation.

While it was unclear what the two were discussing, the body language suggested that Obama was trying to convince Lieberman of something and his stance appeared slightly intimidating.

Using forceful, but not angry, hand gestures, Obama literally backed up Lieberman against the wall, leaned in very close at times, and appeared to be trying to dominate the conversation, as the two talked over each other in a few instances.http://www.thecarpetbaggerreport.com/archives/15766.html

In State Legislature Altercation, Obama Had To Be Physically Restrained.

Finally, a new and intriguing anecdote from David Mendells biography of the Illinois senator, Obama: From Promise To Power, on page 125-126:

Obama, to be sure, had allies in the black caucus, but he had his share of critics as well. His chief antagonists were Rickey Hendon, who represented a district on the citys West Side, and Donne Trotter, ho would run against Obama for Congress.

Hendon and other African-American lawmakers from the West Side often found themselves at odds with their South Side brethren, but the rift between Hendon and Obama was particularly acute. Hendon and Trotter would just give Barack hell, said Senator Kimberly Lightford, an Obama ally in the black caucus. Hendon, nicknamed Hollywood, because he once aspired to produce films, was a flamboyant personality in Springfield, known for his smart-aleck humor and occasionally inappropriate public manner. In one legislative session, the two nemses nearly came to physical blows when Obama, apparently inadvertently, voted against a bill that included funding for a project that assisted Hendons district.

Years later, details of the incident remain in the eye of the beholder. Obama supporters say that Obama had stepped away from his seat and asked someone else to vote for him, not an uncommon practice considering the thousands of votes each session. His proxy, however, accidentally voted against his wishes. When Obama asked that the record reflect that he voted the wrong way, Hendon publicly accused Obama of duplicity. Hendon has never been shy about holding back his feelings, and he had a special way of penetrating Obamas usually smooth exterior. Soon, the two men were shouting at each other on the senate floor. They took their disagreement into a nearby room, and a witness said that Obama had to be physically restrained. Neither man cares to discuss the incident today, but Hendon remains unconvinced of Obamas explanation that his vote was accidental. Individuals close to the situation say Hendon still believes Obama voted against his project to pacify North Side fiscal conservatives who were leery of some West Side projects. For his part, the rarely reticent Hendon wont discuss the altercation, except to confirm that it occurred. I have been advised to leave Barack alone and that is what I am going to do, Hendon said. I am going to let things stay in the past. It happened. Thats all I can say. It happened.

Oh yes...his wonderful attitude during the big health care discussions. He never had any intention of accomplishing anything that day. He humored the Republicans. It’s like he’s disgusted just being in the same room with them.

Wait till Obama really goes postal. Up till now his girlfriend Rosy Scenario has been at his side. but what happens when unemployment is stuck at 10+ permanently, when the wheels start coming off Obamacare, when another war starts, when his conies get booted from office? I don’t think it will be pretty.

(There is no right to do wrong.)

“During one of those sessions in the Oval Office the first week after the spill, a president who rarely vents his frustration cut his aides short, according to one who was there. “Plug the damn hole,” Obama told them.”

I’ve always wondered why he wanted to be photographed that way. Was he counting on the MSM photographers to photoshop in that halo of light around his head that is so often seen in fawning pre-election photos?
But seriously - I know he is malignant narcissist and that he views himself as god-like. But - I think he WANTED to be photographed this way and I wonder why. He could pose at false modesty and we’d see through it easily but he didn’t want to. He actually stood this way, primly with his nose in the air - so much like a dictator. It makes me think that he has been practicing that pose since he was 4 or 5 years old and he was never socialized out of posing that way. His desire to be king never matured to the reptilian adult thirst for power often seen in DC. Among the sharks - he all but sticks his tongue out in childlike mimicry of superiority.
